"Electric Storm"

AS is so often the case in the weeks and months preceding the release of a Greatest Hits compilation, a rock band feel the need to churn out another hit which more often than not falls a little short of anything remotely interesting. Rock gods they may well be, but Electric Storm isn't in the same league as most of the monstrous music they've released in the past. It's a nice enough track, but it's of B-side standards, only made interesting by the accompanying video. Really only for die-hard fans who support Bono every step of the way. Those with more discerning tastes should wait for their Greatest Hits album.
